About me

My background

I grew up in Ireland, and graduated from Trinity College Dublin with a BA in mathematics and statistics. I'm currently based in Chicago while pursuing a masters in computational analysis and public policy.

I'm interested in challenges at the intersection of technology and policy and opportunities to use data and tech for good.
